Efficiency Bound of a Solar-driven Stirling Heat Engine System
A solar-driven Stirling engine is modelled as a combined system which consists of a solar collector and a Stirling engine. The performance of the system is investigated, based on the linearized heat loss model of the solar collector and the irreverisible cycle model of the Stirling engine affected by finite-rate heat transfer and regenerative losses. The maximum efficiency of the system and the...
متن کاملThe Myth of the high-efficiency external-combustion Stirling Engine
The reported discrepancy between theory and experiment for external combustion Stirling engines is explained by the addition of thermal resistance of the combustion gasses to the standard Carnot model. In these cases, the Stirling engine ideal efficiency is not as is normally reported equal to the Carnot cycle efficiency but is significantly lower. A new equation for ideal Stirling engine effic...
متن کاملEnhancement of heat transfer
Recent technological developments have lead to significant increase in the generated heat by electronic and optical components. The removal of high heat fluxes can be successfully treated by several methods, e.g. impinging jets. Further improvement is offered by incorporating arrays of jets or causing jets to pulsate. The research reported herein introduces a new method which is based on actuat...
متن کاملEnhancement of Natural Convection Heat Transfer in Annular Enclosures
Natural convection heat transfer was investigated experimentally in a concentric-cylinders annulus. To enhance the rate of heat transfer, pin fins were installed on the surface of the inner cylinder. Two fin arrangements were employed, namely, staggered and in-line arrangements. The length of the fins varied from 2 to 8 cm and the Rayleigh number Ra changed in the range from 5 x 105 to 5 x 106...
متن کاملEnergy Efficiency Improvement in a Water Heater with a Run-Around Heat Exchanger System
A significant portion of the energy consumed by home appliances that uses hot water is used for heating cold supply water. Such home appliances generally use supply water at a temperature lower than the ambient temperature. Thus, the water is normally heated from below the ambient temperature to its designed maximum temperature by the appliance, often using natural gas or an electrical heater. ...
